BETTER ME#3 MOTIVATING AND INVESTING IN YOURSELF.


Hello everyoe,im soooo sorry this week's episode of BETTER ME is coming late,i had serious wahala with my network provider,but thanks to my friend and cousin who helped me because im not good at stuffs like that,thank you for dropping by it is a long post but please read to the end,and share with others,your comments would be appreciated.Straight to the business of the day MOTIVATING ND INVESTING IN YOURSELF.


Let us start by knowing what motivation means,to me(im not oxford dictionary o) motivation means the enthusiasm to do something or towards something,urge,passion,muse(am i right?),and i have learnt different things motivate different people(even the most ridiculous things),most people have lost their motivation along the line,even i myself i am still trying to retrace my steps,and before you can even invest in yourself you have to be motivated to do so.
I think the greatest days in a man's life are the days he was born and the day he finds out his purpose in life,so here are three tips that i think can drive you into motivation...
*Get a drive, finding your drive simply means getting a reason to do what you actually want to do,find your because,that reason behind the step you want to take.

*Identify the people that unlock your energy and creativity,know the environment where you are calm,where you can think straight,find people you think alike,people who are going your way,yu cant like cars and start sharing your ideas with someone who just wants to act,what professional advice can that person give you?

*Discover yourself,stop being fake,BE YOU!,we are all unique in our own different ways,most of us have tried living a life that is not ours at one point in our life,you might not be who you are yet,you might not be where you are yet but with the right amount of work you will get there,and always remember YOU CANT RUN ANOTHER MAN'S RACE AND WIN IN LIFE.

*Try being a rainbow in someone's cloud,the thing people dont understand is when you help someone,you help yourself,be open to share with people,don't be "a know it all".



     Then on investing in yourself after finding your drive,i was going through a book last week and the writer said "if you value yourself and invest in yourself,you will be worth a great deal throughout your lifetime,both to yourself and to your community",my pastor also also said in one of his teachings that investing in yourself is like planting a seed,at the long run if you have taken good care of your plant you will reap something good,and when you also invest in the wrong things  you might get bad harvest,my friend posted something on FB last week about his boss motivating him and i just knew i needed to put it up here,this was what he said...
                "If you have an investment to make at your age what will it be?,is it a land,house or a car?
                  the house would be a liability,you will have to fuel the car before it even moves,it is better
                  you invest in yourself,that is the best thing you can do,use whatever you have now to learn
                  more about  a skill,when you know it well,it will keep fetching you income,as you grow old
                  your capacity to learn reduces,make good use of your younger days,whatever you learn now
                  you will do it much better than someone who started later,learn online,intern in start ups,just  
                  learn!,the best investment you could make in investing yourself is to be a better you".

Surround yourself with people that push you,when you try something and it fails FACE IT,CONFRONT IT,AND START AGAIN,never think of an exit plan,so start today,find what motivates you and start investing in yourself.
